Alpha-blockers may be used to treat patients with both hypertension (HTN) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Alpha-blockers, such as tamsulosin, help relax the muscles in the prostate and bladder neck, making it easier to urinate.

While alpha-blockers are not typically used to treat diabetes, asthma, or hyperlipidemia, they can be beneficial for patients with HTN and comorbid BPH.
